William Shakespeare’s summertime comedy about love and mischief is brought to life by Silicon Valley Shakespeare with an entirely female cast—fitting, given Shakespeare’s loyalty to the heroine and oft-floated theory that Old Bill may have actually been a woman. In one plot line, Titania and Oberon, queen and king of the fairies, have a big tiff, and Oberon enlists the “shrewd and knavish sprite,” Puck, to get back at Titania. Meanwhile, four Athenians caught in a messy love rectangle run off into the same forest. That’s when Puck gets into some classic spritely business with magical flower juice. Runs through June 23.
